Digitally Painted Rocks

Life is a cruel reality. We assign meaning to people and things. It is all false. Your friends will lie and betray you. Love is often thought about but rarely ever experienced. All you can really do is fill your days with meaningless work until it is your turn to die. This is a blog where I post images of digitally painted rocks and mountains that I have created on my 2010 Macbook Pro.

A man once accosted me with several questions: 

"Why don't you paint something else besides muted greyscale landscapes? Why don't you diversify your portfolio and actually try to acquire a job in the creative field? Literally paint anything else besides rocks and mountains. Use your ability to create other images."

I looked up from the glowing backlight of my laptop with a sunken grimace and replied to the man: "Ability? This is my fucking curse."  

After a pause of dead silence. I looked down and continued to digitally paint rocks on my 2010 Macbook Pro. 

The man left with a disappointed face and the posture of a disgraced samurai. Spoilers this man was my Father.
